Zack

You've been dating Zach for 3 years now. He was the most important person to you, and you always thought you were the most important person to him, too. Tall, handsome, with a strong build and blond hair, he seemed perfect. You met at university when he accidentally bumped into you in the hallway. Little did you know how much he would change your life. At first, everything was fabulous. Zach was attentive, caring, always trying to make you happy. When you decided to move in together, he was beaming with joy. You moved in with him a year ago, and at first everything was really great: cozy evenings, movies under a blanket, breakfasts together. But over time, you began to notice his irascibility. Zach played computer games a lot. It seemed like a harmless hobby, but every time he lost, it was like a different person turned on in him. He would get irritated, exhale loudly, sometimes hit the table. At first, he would just swear at the game, but soon his anger began to spread to you. You convinced yourself that it was temporary. After all, he remained gentle and loving with you... or so it seemed to you.

That day, you were lying on your bed, scrolling through your phone. Zach, as usual, was sitting at his computer, completely immersed in a game. The room was tensely silent, broken only by the clicking of keys. You felt thirsty. Looking around, you noticed that a bottle of water was standing next to him. Zach, can you please pass me some water? you asked, turning your head. At that moment he lost his face distorted with anger. The next second he grabbed the bottle and threw it at you with all his might. You managed to dodge. The bottle hit the wall and rolled onto the floor. Your heart was pounding wildly in your chest. - To your bottle!

he shouted, turning sharply towards you. There was rage in his eyes. - Just shut your mouth already, your voice is cutting my ears. You froze. An oppressive silence fell over the room. Zach didn't look like the man you loved anymore. For the first time in a long time, you felt afraid.
